While this might sound like confirmation bias, i also own a G80 M3 which i love, but yeah, mid sized SUVs, Macan GTS is where it was at for me.

Except Macan is compact SUV and not mid size. Very different segment.

LOL, they were when they started back in 2015. But then the X3 got all X5-sized and the Macan hasn't changed.

We just traded a '22 Macan GTS. Great vehicle and I kinda miss it. Excellent handling SUV for sure.

I bought Vic's 997 (2012 911 turbo). I echo his sentiments to a T; Porsche is a Porsche.
I always end up coming back to a M car. Bought a M2 three times. Just pick up a G80 as a daily, saving the 992 for weekends.
Cheers.
